In the months between the iPad's announcement and the product's launch, a great deal of attention was lavished on the A4 CPU at the heart of the new device. Apple has been characteristically tight-lipped about the SoC's design and characteristics, but industry analysts have been determinedly...

Google has done it again. And when we say "it again," we mean "set a new bar for everyone else to jump over." For years now, online storage has been hit or miss, particularly the free variety. There are numerous services that charge a monthly rate to store your files online, but few of these...
